In Lhasa Diba Mansion, 63-year-old Suonan Raodan is about to reach the end of his life.
His life was wonderful! He led Gushi Khan into the Snow Region and became the first Diba in the Snow Region. He revised laws and established regulations, and made great contributions to the establishment of the Heshuote Khanate. He was tied with Gushi Khan.
They are the two most powerful people in the Snow Region and are known as the "sun and moon in the sky". Gushi Khan is the sun and he is the moon.
Now, the sun has passed and the moon is about to lose its luster. The only thing that I can't worry about is my family. In recent years, I have followed Gushi Khan closely and offended many big families. I am alive and confident that I can control it. But if it were me
Dead?
He called his younger brother Norbu to his side and said, "Little brother, I am about to return to the embrace of the Buddha. The only one I can't worry about is you. After I die, you must find a way to succeed me as Diba, so that our family can continue to prosper.
”.
Upon hearing this, Norbu burst into tears and choked up: "Brother, don't worry. With our family's relationship with the Great Khan, the position of Diba will definitely fall into the hands of our family!"
The relationship between the Suonan Qunpei family and the Gushi Khan family is unusual. The two families are connected by marriage, and a woman from the Suonan family married Gushi Khan as his concubine. Therefore, Norbu is full of confidence in his succession as Diba.<

"Cough, cough, cough," Suonan Raodan coughed and said, "You must not be careless. Although Dayan Eqir Khan is the eldest son of the Xian Khan and a famous warrior in Mongolia, he is not as decisive as the Xian Khan.
The roots of your ears are soft. After my death, you should immediately ask to see the Great Khan and ask him to take measures to suppress Ngawang Lobsang Gyal and make you Diba."
"Yes", Norbu responded respectfully.
"Remember, our family owes its current power to the Great Khan. Under no circumstances can we betray the descendants of the Great Khan, otherwise disaster will be imminent," Suonan Raodan breathed and asked.
"Aha (Mongolian: brother), don't worry," Norbu shed tears.
Gushi Khan trusted Suonan Raodan very much. In addition to his Khan's seal, important official documents also had to be stamped with Diba's secondary seal. Diba was a deacon, meaning aide, and in name, he had to go through Ngawang to take office.
Master Lobsang Gyatso approved it, but during the Gushi Khan era, it was just a formality.
This talented and strategic Mongolian Khan of the Desert went south to Qinghai-Tibet in the name of protecting religion and established the Khoshote Khanate. He was very aware of the influence of religion on the Qinghai-Tibet region. Therefore, he "conquered all hostile forces and completely controlled the whole country".
Before he ascended the throne of the supreme Tibetan King in the Third District of Tibet, he was not in a hurry to proclaim himself Khan in Tibet. Instead, he followed the example of Kublai Khan in making a large offering to Phagpa, and symbolically transferred the long-defunct "Tibet
"130,000 Households in the West" was dedicated to Ngawang Lobsang Gyatso.
Suonan Raodan remembered until his death that day when Gushi Khan made a large offering to Ngawang Lobsang Gyatso.
The Great Khan was wearing a Mongolian battle armor and a line of armored soldiers, which was majestic. While displaying his military power, he respectfully invited Ngawang Lobsang Gyatso to Shigatse and summoned Mongolian and Tibetan monks and lay officials at the Samdrupse Palace, imitating Kublai Khan.
An example of making a large offering to Phagsepa was to offer numerous offerings to Ngawang Lobsang Gyatso and 130,000 households including Samdrupse. The so-called 130,000 households are actually just empty names and have long since ceased to exist, but
In form, it still gives the guru enough face.
One hand was hard and the other was soft, forcing Ngawang Lobsang Gyatso to praise the Great Khan in public for his "courage, perseverance, and firm belief", and asked him to "stay for the sake of Master Tsongkhapa's teachings" and recognize him as one of the "three
"King of the District".
As a result, the Great Khan occupied the Lion Throne of the Potala Palace as the highest military and political leader of the Khoshot Khanate and commanded military and political affairs in the Qinghai-Tibet region; while Ngawang Lobsang Gyatso was reduced to a nominal religious leader with no real power. Mongolia
The Tibetan-integrated Khoshote Khanate was established.
Over the years, he was loyal to Gushi Khan, and as brothers, he was able to defeat gold and conquer the picturesque world. Unfortunately, time was not forgiving, Gushi Khan passed away, and his end was coming.
"Khan, I'm here to accompany you. When you get there, I'll still follow you to conquer the world." Suonan Raodan murmured, and two lines of tears shed from the corners of his eyes.
"Woo~woo~woo~"
There were cries in the house, the first Diba passed away, and the sun and moon in the sky disappeared.
??
"Master, I just got the news that Sonam Raodan is dead."
Chen Gyatso smiled and reported to Ngawang Losang Gyatso.
Ngawang Lobsang Gyatso, who was sitting upright and practicing, was shocked when he heard this. He had waited for a long time and finally waited for today! However, he was an eminent monk after all, so he silently picked up the beads without showing anything on his face.
This great monk was born in Qiongjie Qingwa Dazi Palace in Shannan area in 1617. When he was six years old, he was recognized and invited to be enthroned in Drepung Monastery, and he entered Lhasa with another great monk, Gushi Khan.
In order to express his devotion to Buddhism, Khan invited him to Samdrupse and established the Ganden Phodrang local government in the name of the Ganden Phodrang Palace of Drepung Monastery where he was stationed in Xi.
He was unwilling to be Gushi Khan's puppet and wanted to find a big tree to rely on. He first surrendered to the Qing Dynasty and went to Beijing to meet Emperor Shunzhi in 1652 and was canonized. Later, seeing that the Qing court was in trouble, he sent an envoy to surrender to the Ming Dynasty and had a good relationship with Zhu Hengjia.
Get the honey to mix the oil.
Seeing that he was picking up Buddhist beads, Chen Gyatso did not dare to disturb him and stood respectfully. He was Ngawang Lobsang Gyatso's companion and his friend since childhood. At the age of sixteen, he became the chief steward of Nanjie Dracang. He was very important to Ngawang.
Lobsang Gyatso, loyal.
After a long while, Ngawang Lobsang Gyatso said, "You are ready to succeed Diba."
"Diba?"
Chen Gyatso was surprised and happy. He thought about it and said, "I'm afraid the Great Khan may not agree!"
"It's okay, I'll tell you over there," Ngawang Lobsang Gyatso looked confident.

The beautiful Damu grassland is where the court of Dayan Eqir Khan is located.
This grassland is located in the south of Tengger Lake and north of Lhasa. It has rich water and grass and a pleasant climate. It is not only a place for nomadic herding and training of Mongolian soldiers, but also the summer camp of Heshuote Khan. It is the base area of Heshuote Mongolian soldiers.
The lifeline of the Khan's court. Gushi Khan gave it to Dayan, which shows that he was the successor Gushi Khan had already chosen.
Although Dayan Ozil Khan also has an office in the Potala Palace, he spends most of his time in Damu Grassland, which is his base. He is famous for his bravery in Mongolia, the desert. As a fierce general, he naturally likes to spend time with soldiers.
Together.
Before his death, Gushi Khan had a last wish, asking him to listen to the opinions of his sixth brother Dorji. Therefore, he called Dorji to his side to help him manage his affairs.
"Great Khan, urgent report from Lhasa, Suonan Raodan has passed away." One day, two brothers were chatting, and a confidant came to report.
"Alas! Mr. Suonan Raodan is loyal to the country, and I should go to express my condolences in person." Dating Ezier sighed.
"Aha (brother), the top priority now is not to express condolences, but to identify the next candidate for Diba as soon as possible and firmly control the government in his own hands." Dorji saw the key to the problem at a glance.
"What the sixth brother said is that I immediately inform Ngawang Lobsang Gyatso and ask him to appoint Norbu as the second Diba," Dating Eqir said seriously.
